Thanks for the cool video. I had same issues with hockey puck bush. I ended up stripping welded nut and used a Vise grip to get the bolt out. Cleaned the bolts and nut threads/ used the same with a tack weld on nut. Any recommendations how not to strip the nut?
Thanks for the compliment. I used lots of penetrating oil during removal and would loosen the bolt slightly and then tighten back in... repeating this until it felt loose. Now when putting the bolt back in I made sure that everything was aligned correctly so the bolt went in straight and tightened it slowly using a rachet making sure it felt like it was going in without much force so as to not strip the thread in the nut or bolt.
No videos on cv axles but I had one snap on me a few years back and shortly after replacing that I also did the opposite side as a preventative measure. To clarify my previous reply, the lower control arm being bad was associated with the noise I would hear on acceleration from fead stop and when stopping. That noise did go away after replacing them. The other noises I had like rattling were as a result of bad engine and tranny mounts.

Did it fix the issue
There were a combination of suspension components I ended up changing to finally clear up all the rattling and noise. Refer to my other videos.
@@sopromondo3262 will check. Did any include cv axles
